Mindless Chatter Monday

    Mindless Chatter Monday

     My family had a get together for my sisters college graduation yesterday. We all played guitar hero on the Wii. How fun. My nieces and I were on vocals, we were rocking out Joan Jett and Blondie. My nieces are 10, 8 and 6 and they knew all the words and were singing as loud as they could. It was too funny.

    I practiced Lily's HRD  last night using 6 bricks with teeth in one of the holes. She did awesome! She really has a knack for this. I can tell that she is learning to love working for it too. She gets really driven and works pretty fast. Pretty good for a former couch potato!

    day 1 of Bugsy being restricted to onleash potty breaks only.  To say he is unhappy would be an understatement

    Well my apathy yesterday means I have a full day today - been working since 6:30 this morning bleck!

    My aunt is having a bunch of tests today and they have stopped all meds.  Prayers please - thanks

    dreary rainy day too - well at least that helps demotivate the beast

    Absolutely prayers for you Aunt.

    I have a doe not 10 feet from me outside the window grazing.  Not sure I'll ever get over getting a little thrill when this happens.

    I'm certainly paying for my little burst of defiance yesterday.  I haven't been feeling all that great and Friday night thought I was going to have a "double header" with the stomach in the middle of the night.  Still wasn't feeling great yesterday but decided that I was sick of feeling sick and was just going to push through it.  So, all that physical stuff paid off in leg cramps last night....all night.  The stomach and the bleh feeling seem better today....but the leg muscles are sore as heck and I sure am tired from partially waking up repeatedly with the darned cramps.  But, it's my own fault for forgetting to drink the V8 after a major sweat.

    Lots to do today for work, so off to get started.

    Amanda, that new siggie is awesome! Great job Candace :)

    Well surprise surprise, useless co worker didn't show up today. She has a week of working at 50 % and that was too much for her. She got her raise, now back to being utterly useless.

    I spent a couple hours in the ER last night with FH. We went to bed around 10:00 and I made him get up at about 11:00 because I thought I heard the birds making a racket downstairs. Apparently, I must have dreamed I was being attacked by finches. There was no noise. He went to check and heard nothing, but on his way back to the bedroom, he bumped into a fan that was in the hallway and sliced his foot on the BOTTOM of the fan - there are usually plastic parts protecting the bottom, but this is an old fan and just has four metal legs. So we got the bleeding stopped pretty quickly, duct taped it up and off we went to get stiches. hehehe. It has probably been a year, maybe two since I've had to take him to the ER! That's a pretty good record.

    On a more excited note, we are going to Buffalo and Niagara Falls this weekend :) I have never been to Niagara Falls so I am excited. Plus I'm pretty certain that I RULE at blackjack.

    Good vibes for your aunt Karen.

    Way to go Lily!!

    It's brrrrrr cold this morning. My car said 54 and it's probably accurate but it felt way colder. The heated seats were much appreciated on the drive in.

    I had to see the dr. about my latest thyroid tests. He said it's still low and is doubling the medicine. I still haven't gained the weight back from having the surgery, so this should be interesting.

    Boss in on the road all this week - yay!!!!!!!!!! I also just realized that we have next Monday off for Columbus Day - woohoo!

    Is it lunch time yet?  I need a margarita.

    We had a funny happen this morning.  I let Bev come to work with me today.  We have a system worked out with our elevator attendant.  He takes Bev up to my floor, & I run the stairs up.  We do this all the time, so it's  a normal occurence.  We usually get to my floor around the same time.  Today when I got to my floor, Bev & the attendant were both standing outside the elevator.  As I got closer I could smell why.  Apparently, Bev had a serious case of toxic dobergas. Ick!  The elevator was absolutely toxic.  I felt so sorry for the guy.  I apologized profusely, & then ran to my office for the bottle of febreeze.  I was so embarrassed.

    ETA:  Annie, how is the foot?
